"For those of us who are longing to 'live loved', I cannot
recommend a better follow-up to The Shack than this book. It is an
exploration and adventure into the heart of the God we hoped was
truly there, and who loves each of us in particular with an
everlasting love."-William Young, author of The Shack
"The author explores how to increase one's confidence in God's
love. He compares doubters to children "plucking daisy petals," who
believe that their suffering means that God doesn't love them. With
subtle humor, Jacobsen says to "toss that daisy aside." Using
seamless narratives and a rich vocal presentation, he points the
way to an intimate, vibrant relationship with Christ that begins at
the cross with free will and choice. His powerful narration
contrasts guilt with the intimacy and affection freely offered by
God. Deep faith, he says, recognizes the eternal choices of heaven
or hell. Comparing life to Monopoly, he admonishes listeners to
choose wisely and to use their "Get Out of Hell Free" card."

"Understanding God's love requires not a classroom lecture but a
long bath. In He Loves Me, Wayne Jacobsen fills the tub and invites
us to soak in real life, the inner life of the Trinity. 'What
Really Happened on the Cross' is worth reading five or six times,
then sinking quietly and deeply into its life-giving water."-Dr.
